Thomasville has a live progress!ye mayor and a good board of aldermen. Joe Fass got a vote for alderman. It is not known bow much be paid for We sincerely congratulate the citi zens of Thomasville that tbe last elec tion is over. The saloon keepers are doubtless glad that election days have passed for this year. Wednesday was not exactly the “Sunny South.’’ WelL bard'y. But the clouds will roll by. Read the weather news in -another column and you will be satisfied with the condition of thiugr in Thomasville. It is said that snow fell in Albany yesterday. That is getting very near. Albany is only about CO miles north of us. The new Columbian souvenir stamps are being used cow almost exlusively, although the othera ape yet od sale. Editor Hawk, of Albany, waa registered at the Stuart laet night. He reports both snow and sleet in the Artesian City yesterday. Mr Tom Livingston is no longer with the general merchandise store of E. R. Pringle, but has gone down to his father’s plantation below Boston. The first shipment of new goods e«me in with a rush and more goods are expected daily. Our buyer has been in the maiket for the past two weeks with ejes open and hands ready to clasp bargains, and we have just received the finest and most complete line, of Ladies’ Misses and Childrens Hosier 1 Pint’s Half Hose ever brougnt lo this town, comprising all the new “Leath er” and cardinal shades in Kiche'ieu and Rembrandt ribbed Hose. Also a full line of Herm°dorf black Hose in all grades, from 15c to $1.50 p:r pair. KID GLOVES Af.er next Monday Mayor Hopkins will poise the scales of justice in the police ciurt. He is a terror to evil doers as all who have been before him .will testily. This is the season to exercise an unusual degree of care about fire*. Two or three serious burnings have already occurred. These should prove a warning to the careless. Mr. b. F. Hawkins potled a very complimentary vote. His friends stood by him with ptrfect loyalty and he is, no doubt, gratified at the liberal support he received. Such support blunts the sting 6{ defeat. It i* gratifying to state that the election yesterday paa cd ofl without a single unpleasant incident. Messrs. Hopkins and Hawkins are to be con- gratulnU-d upon the manner in which they conducted their canvaf. world without end.

A dispatch was received yesterday by Mr. Steve Cook announcing the death of his brother, Mr. Romulus Cook, in Cincinnati This news will be received with regret by the fiieuds of the young man in Thomasville. Mr. -John W. Mosury, of New York, arrived yesterday and is stop- FIRE AND WATER. A Tramp’s Exciting Race for Life at the Railroad Yards. He was so seedy. and traveled st&iiT.d from crosslie exercise that the yard men, who look upon tramps and tarantulas as in the same category, would have rebelled against his ad mittance to their circle around a cheerful fire, bad not the night been bitter cold. The man was almost be numbed, and in his endeavor to thaw out, hovered over the blaze until his rags became ignited. He discover* ed the fact about as soon as the otb* ers, but. did not faint or call for help. Instead he proved himself a man of action. Some distance op the track was the reservoir, where the engines take water. Like a meteor in * the night the traipp sped. Bit blazing coat-tails leaving a trail of sparks be hind. It was a race for life, and he got up and dusked as never a cop had caused him to get. The fellow was well iilaminated as he gained the tank. Grasping a cord that throws on the lever, a perfect deluge follow ed. Down in the icy water be rolled, and the flames were soon quenched. But the railroad men have not quite decided yet, whieh of the two extremes they would have chosen—the fire or that cold water. Another one He«rd From. The following notice oi Thomasville is taken from the Rock Couaty Ban ner, published at Clinton, Wis.: Arrived at Thomasville, a town of 4000 inhabitants, Situated in the southwestern parr of Georgia about 50 miles from the Gulf of Mccico, on' Monday -morning, December istb. This place is a popular, health resort for northern people, and many wealthy men have built there winter residences, returning to ibeir homes for the sums mer. This is also a great country for pears and watermelons, car loads be ing shipped each year to the northern cities. Here are four very fine hotels. At the Stuart we were banqueted, for breakfast and dinner going from there 10 the Masury in the evening for re ception and banquet supper. The other hotels are only for the accom modation bt winter tourists and are not opened until at.er the holidays. Car*, riages were provided u» for a drive about town and into the country where we found good farming land with plen ty of fruit. THE ELECTION.

And now the policemen are in a fever of anxiety. The city council will elect a new force next Monday afternoon. Some of tbe boys are quite shaky over their chances at there are a number of applications to be considered. Progressive Euchre. The first progressive euchre party of tbe season at the Piney Woods came off last night, and it was a most interesting and entertaining one. The players were full of animation and vivacity, and the playing throughout was spirited. Tbo prizes, as usual, were very handsome, em bracing silver novelties and brie a- brac of a very fine order. The re freshments served by the manage- meat of the house were choice and delicate and added no little to the pleasure of the evening- Like all the social affairs at the Piney Woods the euchre party last night was a decided success. The following par ties participated in the playing: Mesdames Stotesbury, Hostetler, Tew, Swart, Jerger,Davies, Ely, Chadwick, Bjyce, Patterson, Loose, Nichols, Misses Nelson, Kaufholz, and Messrs. Stotesbury, Hoetetter, Brintou, Ewart, Jerger, Davies, Hart, Cadigar, Nelson, Kerr. Hebard, Col man, Blair and Dr. Colton. Below will be found the official vote sa cast in the eleetion Tuesday for Mayor and Aldermen. The con test was a friendly one on all sides, The re-electien of the old board is a high compliment, and a just tribute to the gentlemen composing the board. It is an endorsement of the faithful manner in which they have discharged their duties by the citizens of the town, by the men whom they have been serving. The tax payers and property holders have said to them: “Well done, thou good and faithful servants." Ia their 'election some good, men were, necessarily de feated, men who, had they been elected, would have served the (own well and faithfully. The large vote polled for Mayor elect Hopkins if an endorsement of his former able administrations and evidences tbeiact that the people favor bis return to the position which he has several times filled before. Hr. Hawkins, his opponent, is a young man with* bright future and can stan£ defeat. He is not the man to be sqnrsd by the result oi the election. In justice to several gentlemen who received very light votes it is proper to state that they were in no sense candidates. Friends took the liberty of patting their names on some oi the tickets. Four hundred and forty- four votes out of a registration list of five hundred . and thirty oat were polled. f At 5 o’clock sharp, Marshal Spair declared the polls closed. A large crowd lingered about the place for two hours waiting for the conat to dose. A few minutes after seven o’clock the count was completed. And this is the official vote: FOR MAYOR.

Not personal hard- As will be seen try rcferet.ee to the council proceedings, which appears elsewhere, the mayor's salary for 1893 waa fixed at $600. This is the same as it was last year. In this connecs tion it may not be amiss to give pub licly to the opinion we have heard expressed by many of our citizens to the effect that the chairman ct the street committee should receive some compensation lor his services The duties of mis office are such as to re quire a great deal of one’s time. We venture to say Mr. Stephens, who held this position last year, devoted a great deal more lime to his official'du- tics than he did to hia private' affairs, and it is the opinion of many that the town should not impose so heavily upon the time of one of her officials without in some manner compensat ing him. We hearty agree with the opinions above quoted and hope the new council will consider the matter and chang: th: present order of things. We beard yesterday of a hog being captured in the river swamp a few days ago thntwas marked by old Uncle Jack Hurst in 1870. This -would make the hog twenty two yean old, which ia a most remarkable ago for a hog to attain. Mr. Fearo Butler returned yesterday Irom Savannah, where he has been ah tending United States court for the past week. Mr. Butler saya it waa snowing when he lelt there. The ground was well covered and the air was full of dying flakes. Quite number ol Northern gentle* men were interested spectators of the scenes about the polls yesterday. They appeared to enjoy a Southern election, They sav, as they wonld see here at any election, every man, white and colored, voting tree and un- tramelled. Moultrie Items. The railroad will soon reach town, and then the place will boom sure enough. By going down to F.dcock, the court and lawyers can reach Moul trie by rail at the spring term. Street lamps are to. be put up. Marriages are of frequent occur rence. That’s a healthy sign ol pros perity. The Burner grows brighter and bet ter. It ought to be well sustained. This is in the last issue ol the Ban ner: Moultrie has the champion egg eater ol this portion of the state. He devoured 43 eggs at a recent sitting with the greatest easy, and cou’d have accommodated a couple of dozen more without any trouble whatever. Bob Balfour returned last night from a duck hunt down on the lakes. He reports that on Tuesday morning the Fonshallie lake was frozen completely over, the ice being over halt an inch thick. This lake ie quite a large body of water,, and was never known to freeze over before. Mira Pearl Tilton, the accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. M. Tilton, of the Mitchell House, who has been attending school in Boston, Mass., arrived yesterday and will spend the winter with her parents in this city, Mias Tilton’s numerous Thomasville friends are pleased to aee her again. Mr. J, T. B. Collens and wife, of Bayonne, N. J., arrived yesterday. They will spend the eeaaon at Mr. MacFarliaa’s winter retreat in the country.’ Mr. Collene comes south to recuperate from a long seige of nervous prostration. He was here last winter and hia wonderful feats with the rifle will be remembered by many. A local newspaper ia often accused of bias in regard to giving personal notices commenting on the coming and going of some and omitting others. The accusation is entirely wrong and unjust. It is with the people and not the editor. He is always willing and even anxious to tell who comes and goes, if he can find ont; but a country piper cannot afford to have a score of salarivd re porters. If yon have visitors, let ns know wh > they are and where they come from; if anything happens in your community, let us know about it; if you get married, let us know the names of your guests; if you know anything tell us about it. You will find ns as ready to notion one as an, other, patron or otherwise, friends or foes. Contests the Election., The justice of the peace eleetion at Cairo has gone into the eonrls. It will be remembered that the oonnt was very close. Z. E. Horton was the third party candidate and J. N. Bar- row for the democrat!. Norton was found to have one vote majority. Mr. Barrow, however, declares -fraud. Notice of contest has been served on Mr. Norton. The evidence will h* heard before Jndge Alexander of the county court Saturday. Hammond A Hammond represent Mr. Barrow. Norton w«s in the city yesterday get ting op evidence. Baptist Bazaar.; The ladies of the Baptist church are making preparations to hold a bazaar for the benefit of that chnrch on the 8th and 9th of February. It will probably be held in the Linton store next door to.Mia Laura Jones' millinery store We hope the ladies will be liberally patronised as the object oi the bazaar ia a moat worthy one. The proceed) will go to the bnildiog fund of the new church. Well, someol the boys got left. This, however, is usually the case all elections. They Like It. The following we take from the Lake Geneva, Wia, Herald of last week: 'Mr. Alvan E. Tyler and family a few weeks ago went south for the winter. They went first to Thomas ville, Ga., and like it so well that they art there still. Mr. Tyler writes to ns saying: “I am a thousand times obliged to yon for influencing mo to come here with my wife and brother. We have found it all and more than yon said.- All of which ia very grat ed; one, whieh the late editorial excuraionitta remember with pleasure. “This is a bright annoy day” he, write*, “and about as warm a day as in Jane, it hardly seems like New Year’s.. It is the time of resss and orange blnesome and the people around us keep our room* welT sup plied with both. We have a great variety of fruit each as oranges, peaches, bananas, lemons, guavas, Notwithstanding the disagreeable weather yesterday quite a number of local sports drove down 10 Ohatley Davis’ to see the cock fights which had been arranged to come off there that day. It was a tilt between Geor gia and Florida chickens and Georgia came out 00 top. Out of the six fights fought Georgia whipped five. Of course our boys came back with an in creased amount of filthy lucre. Two typographical errors in the fig ures giving the mult of the election yesterday morning, were apparent to the intelligent reader. The figure 9 in Mr. Jerger’s vote did not print, giv ing his vote at _88, when it should have Keen 988; and the 4, the last figure in Dr. Culpepper's vote, failed to show up plainly, making hia vote ay, when it shouldhave bsen 174, Chas. Davis, colored, was befote Judge Alexander yesterday on a charge of larceny. Davis stole a pair of shoes from Tom Tucker, a well known colored character about town. He was found gudty and sentenced to pay a fine of $95 or work sixty days on the gang. The elections are over at last.
